Cricket Crazy!

Hi Everyone!Today I thought I'd share my entry for the Joanna Sheen challenge which this week is 'Its a Man's World'. Its often so tricky to make men's cards - I'm always lost as to what to embellish them with when ribbon, lace, flowers and bling are not really suitable! Anyway, this card was made in a trifold design using a rubber stamp of a little Cricketer from Flower Soft and to tie in with the cricketing theme I used the cricket field images from the Nostalgia CD to decorate the inside. I'm pretty pleased with this one and other than Flower Soft, a twill sentiment and Card Candi to represent the little cricket balls I managed to stray away from any fancy embellishing. Oh...I did use a Martha Stewart border punch as I thought it needed something other than a straight edge - couldn't help it!! Ha! Ha! I also added a little panel on the back to write the message cut using my Spellbinder's Labels die with a peel off for the sentiment.Anyway, hope you like it. Why not pop over to the challenge site and join in with your creations.Best wishes and thanks for looking!Karen x

About Me

From a young age I've always loved making things whether it be from my own imagination or 'upgrading' Blue Peter creations! As I've got older I've enjoyed capturing different events in my life through scrapbooking as well as making cards and learning new techniques with the whole host of products that are now on the market. Like any crafter, I'm addicted to crafty shopping and love reading other people's blogs and marvelling at their fabulous designs and inspiring creations.
